Not at 3B, I don't. I have played him at 2B even in a $200M and live league, and he has performed well.
Here he is in a Live league:

was he really a bad fielder? from the hype he gets, you'd think he was 1.

I've played him quite a bit at third; no Brooks Robinson but hasn't been a big liability either. Always has put up good offensive numbers for me whether in neutral, hitter's or pitcher's parks.
In a small ball scenario he can also DH if you want more airtight leather at the hot corner.

Jackie is the type I like to draft with no planned position. Then assuming I get him I consider using him at whatever position I failed to receive my pick or a suitable consolation. Consolations almost always stink with the current autodraft logic.

Jackie was on my [url=http://fantasygames.sportingnews.com/baseball/stratalltime/playoffs/team.html?stats=sim&user_id=16506]first team, in ATG I.[/url] It started the addiction. I played him at 1B, however.

That's a link to one of my ATG1 teams, maybe in the same league?

Wish we had Jackie card with at least a 2 defense.
Would make all the difference.
Ditto that on Utley.

Jackie is a 3 or 4 fielding in the 5 seasons i have him playing on Cd rom..48,50,54,55,56.. Utley is a 1 for the 2010 season which someday should make it to ATG...
